The compounds of the formula (I) may be prepared from the corresponding iodophenyl compound (i.e. a compound of formula (I) in which R2 is iodo) via the corresponding tri-C1-4 alkylsilylalkynylphenyl intermediate. The trialkylsilylalkynylphenyl intermediates which have useful pesticidal activity in their own right may be formed by the reaction of the iodo compound with a trialkylsilylalkyne conveniently in the presence of a cuprous salt, such as cuprous iodide, and bis-triphenylphosphine palladium dichloride in a base, such as diethylamine, at a non-extreme temperature, for example at room temperature. The silyl intermediate may then be converted to the compound of formula (I) by methods well known to those skilled in the art, for example by reaction with tetrabutyl-ammonium fluoride in an ether, such as tetrahydrofuran, at a non-extreme temperature, conveniently room temperature.
The process for the preparation of a compound of the formula (I) wherein R2 is phenyl substituted by iodo may be any method known in the art for preparing analogous compounds, for example by the condensation of a triol of the formula (II) with an orthocarboxylate of the formula R2x C(OR7)3. ##STR4## wherein R1 and R3 are as hereinbefore defined, R2x is phenyl substituted by iodo and R7 is C1-4 alkyl, phenyl or C7-8 aralkyl. Suitably R4 is methyl or ethyl, preferably methyl. The reaction is normally carried out in the presence of an acid such as a mineral acid conveniently hydrochloric acid, or a sulphonic acid derivative, such as toluene sulphonic acid, or an acid resin, or in the presence of a trialkyl amine, such as triethylamine, at an elevated temperature, for example between 50° and 200°C, conveniently between 120° and 170°C The reaction may conveniently be carried out in the absence of a solvent but a suitable solvent may be added if desired.
The triol of the formula (II) may be prepared:
(i) from the corresponding triol where R1 and/or R3 are hydrogen via a protected aldehyde which is reacted with a reagent, such as a Grignard reagent, which is suitable for lengthening the carbon chain followed by deprotection, i.e. as represented in Scheme 1. In certain cases, it may be convenient to prepare triol derivatives where R1, R3 are hydrogen and one of the hydroxy groups is protected, by reduction of an ester of the formula (III): ##STR5## wherein R8 is a protecting group such as benzyl and R9 is C1-4 alkyl. This reduction is suitably carried out by a complex hydride such as lithium aluminium hydride in an inert solvent conveniently an ether. The compound of the formula (III) may be prepared from the corresponding compound RCH (CO2 R9)2 by reaction with a compound XCH2 OR8, wherein X is a leaving group such as a halogen, in the presence of a strong base, such as sodium hydride.
(ii) when it is required to prepare a compound of the formula (I) wherein R3 is hydrogen, by the reduction of a compound of the formula (IV): ##STR6## wherein R, R1 and R9 are as hereinbefore defined. This reduction is suitably carried out by means of a complex hydride, such as lithium aluminium hydride in an inert solvent such as an ether, for example diethyl ether.
When R and R1 are linked to form a carbocyclic ring, the compound of the formula (IV) is conveniently prepared by the reaction of a compound of the formula (V) ##STR7## with a compound hal CO2 R9, wherein R, R1, and R9 are as hereinbefore defined and hal is halogen, for example chlorine. This reaction is conveniently carried out in the presence of a Grignard reagent for example ethyl magnesium bromide, in an inert solvent such as an ether, for example tetrahydrofuran. Other compounds of the formula (IV) are conveniently prepared by the reaction of a compound RCH (CO2 R9)2 with a compound hal CO.R1 wherein R, R1, R9 and hal are as hereinbefore defined in a trifluoroacylating agent such as trifluoroacetic anhydridetrifluoroacetic acid or ethyl trifluoroacetate. This reaction is conveniently carried out in the presence of a strong base, such as a metal hydride in a non-polar solvent, for example an aromatic hydrocarbon such as benzene or toluene.
The compounds of the formula (I) wherein R2 is a group R2α may also be prepared by the cyclisation of a compound of the formula (VI) ##STR8## wherein R to R3 are as hereinbefore defined in the presence of an acid catalyst. Boron trifluoride etherate is a particularly preferred acid catalyst for this cyclisation which will normally be carried out in an inert solvent, such as a halogenated hydrocarbon, conveniently dichloromethane, at below ambient temperature, for example between -100° and 0°C and conveniently between -70° and -50°C
The compounds of the formula (VI) may be prepared by the reaction of compounds of the formula (VII) and (VIII): ##STR9## where R10 is a group R1 and R to R3 are as hereinbefore defined and L is leaving group such as halo. This reaction conveniently takes place in an inert solvent in the presence of base at a non-extreme temperature. Halogenated hydrocarbons, such as dichloromethane are particularly suitable solvents, pyridine is a preferred base and the reaction will conveniently be carried out at between -50° and 100°C, preferably at 0°C
The compounds of the formula (VII) may in turn be prepared from compounds of the formula (II) by reaction with diethyl carbonate in the presence of a strong base, for example potassium hydroxide, in a polar solvent, such as an alcohol, for example ethanol, at an elevated temperature, for example between 50° and 100°C This is a preferred method of making compounds of the formula (VII) wherein R1 ═R10 ═CF3.
The compounds of the formula (VII) may alternatively be prepared by the reaction of a Grignard reagent R1 Mg Hal or an C2-4 alkynyl lithium compound or sodium cyanide with a compound of the formula (IX) ##STR10## wherein R, R1 and R3 are as hereinbefore defined and Hal is a halogen atom such as bromine or iodine. This reaction is conveniently carried out in an inert solvent, suitably an ether for example diethyl ether or dioxane at a non-extreme temperature, for example between -50° and 50°C and preferably between -10° and 10°C The alkynyl lithium compound is conveniently present as a complex, for example with ethylenedianime. The sodium cyanide is conveniently added as an aqueous solution. The compounds of the formula (IX) may be prepared by oxidation of compounds of the formula (VII) wherein R10 is hydrogen by using oxalyl chloride and dimethyl sulphoxide in an inert solvent, such as a halogenated hydrocarbon, for example dichloromethane, followed by a base such as triethylamine or by using pyridinium chlorochromate in an inert solvent, such as a halogenated hydrocarbon, for example dichloromethane.
The compounds of the formula (VII) wherein R10 is hydrogen may be prepared in an analogous manner from compounds of formula (II) to the preparation of the compounds of the formula (VII) where R10 is trifluoromethyl.
One compound of the formula (I) may be converted to another compound of the formula (I) by methods well known to those skilled in the art.
The compounds of Formula (I) may be used to control arthropods such as insect and acarine pests. Thus in a further aspect, the, present invention provides a method of controlling arthropods on animals which comprises the administration of an arthopodially effective amount of a compound of the formula (I) to the animal.
The compounds of Formula (I) may be used for such purposes by application of the compounds themselves or in diluted form in known fashion as a dip, spray, lacquer, foam, dust, powder, aqueous suspension, paste, gel, shampoo, grease, combustible solid, vapourising emanator such as a vapourising mat, wettable powder, granule, aerosol, emulsifiable concentrate, oil suspensions, oil solutions, impregnated article or pour on formulation. Dip concentrates are not applied per se, but diluted with water and the animals immersed in a dipping bath containing the dip wash. Sprays may be applied by hand or by means of a spray race or arch or by means of space spraying machinery. The animal; plant or surface being treated may be saturated with the spray by means of high volume application or superficially coated with the spray by means of light or ultra low volume application. Aqueous suspensions may be applied in the same manner as sprays or dips. Dusts may be distributed by means of a powder applicator or, in the case of animals, incorporated in perforated bags attached to trees or rubbing bars. Pastes, shampoos and greases may be applied manually or distributed over the surface of an inert material against which animals rub and transfer the material to their skins. Pour-on formulations are dispensed as a unit of liquid of small volume on to the backs of animals such that all or most of the liquid is retained on the animals.
The compounds of Formula (I) may be formulated either as formulations ready for use on the animals, plants or surface, as space sprays or aerosols, or as formulations requiring dilution prior to application, but both types of formulation comprise a compound of Formula (I) in intimate admixture with one or more carriers or diluents. The carriers may be liquid, solid or gaseous or comprise mixtures of such substances, and the compound of Formula (I) may be present in a concentration of from 0.025 to 99% w/v depending upon whether the formulation requires further dilution.
Dusts, powder and granules comprise the compound of Formula (I) in intimate admixture with a powdered solid inert carrier for example suitable clays, kaolin, silicone dioxide, talc, mica, chalk, gypsum, vegetable carriers, starch and diatomaceous earths.
Sprays of a compound of Formula (I) may comprise a solution in an organic solvent (e.g. those listed below) or an emulsion in water (dip wash or spray wash) prepared in the field from an emulsifiable concentrate (otherwise known as a water miscible oil) which may also be used for dipping purposes. The concentrate preferably comprises a mixture of the active ingredient, with or without an organic solvent and one or more emulsifiers. Solvents may be present within wide limits but preferably in an amount of from 1 to 90% w/v of the composition and may be selected from kerosene, ketones, alcohols, xylene, aromatic naphtha, aromatic and aliphatic esters and other solvents known in the formulating art. The concentration of emulsifiers may be varied within wide limits but is preferably in the range of 0.5 to 25% w/v and the emulsifiers are conveniently non-ionic surface active agents including polyoxyalkylene esters of alkyl phenols and polyoxyethylene derivatives of hexitol anhydrides and anionic surface active agents including Na lauryl sulphate, fatty alcohol ether sulphates, Na and Ca salts of alkyl aryl sulphonates and alkyl sulphosuccinates.
Wettable powders comprise an inert solid carrier, one or more surface active agents, and optionally stabilisers and/or anti-oxidants.
Wettable powders and emulsifiable concentrates will normally contain from 1 to 95% by weight of the active ingredient, and are diluted, for example with water, before use.
Lacquers comprise a solution of the active ingredient in an organic solvent, together with a resin, and optionally a plasticiser.
Dip washes may be prepared not only from emulsifiable concentrates but also from wettable powders, soap based dips and aqueous suspensions comprising a compound of Formula (I) in intimate admixture with a dispensing agent and one or more surface active agents.
Aqueous suspensions of a compound of Formula (I) may comprise a suspension in water together with suspending, stabilizing or other agents. The suspensions or solutions may be applied per se or in a diluted form in known fashion.
Greases (or ointments) may be prepared from vegetable oils, synthetic esters of fatty acids or wool fat together with an inert base such as soft paraffin. A compound of Formula (I) is preferably distributed uniformly through the mixture in solution or suspension. Greases may also be made from emulsifiable concentrates by diluting them with an ointment base.
Pastes and shampoos are also semi-solid preparations in which a compound of Formula (I) may be present as an uniform dispersion in a suitable base such as soft or liquid paraffin or made on a non-greasy basis with glycerin, mucilage or a suitable soap. As greases, shampoos and pastes are usually applied without further dilution they should contain the appropriate percentage of the compound of Formula (I) required for treatment.
Aerosol sprays may be prepared as a simple solution of the active ingredient in the aerosol propellant and co-solvent such as halogenated alkanes and the solvents referred to above, respectively. Pour-on formulations may be made as a solution or suspension of a compound of Formula (I) in a liquid medium. An avian or mammal host may also be protected against infestation of acarine ectoparasites by means of carrying a suitably-moulded, shaped plastics article impregnated with a compound of Formula (I). Such articles include impregnated collars, tags, bands, sheets and strips suitably attached to appropriate parts of the body.
The concentration of the compound of Formula (I) to be applied to an animal will vary according to the compound chosen, the interval between treatments, the nature of the formulation and the likely infestation, but in general 0.001 to 20.0% w/v and preferably 0.01 to 10% of the compound should be present in the applied formulation. The amount of the compound deposited on an animal will vary according to the method of application, size of the animal, concentration of the compound in the applied formulation, factor by which the formulation is diluted and the nature of the formulation but in general will lie in the range of from 0.0001% to 0.5% except for undiluted formations such as pour-on formulations which in general will be deposited at a concentration in the range from 0.1 to 20.0% and preferably 0.1 to 10%.
The compounds of formula (I) are also of use in the protection and treatment of plant species, in which case an effective insecticidal or acaricidal amount of the active ingredient is applied. The application rate will vary according to the compound chosen, the nature of the formulation, the mode of application, the plant species, the planting density and likely infestation and other like factors but in general, a suitable use rate for agricultural crops in the range 0.001 to 3 Kg/Ha and preferably between 0.01 and 1 Kg/Ha. Typical formulations for agricultural use contain between 0.0001% and 50% of a compound of formula (I) and conveniently between 0.1 and 15% by weight of a compound of the formula (I).
Particular crops include cotton, wheat, maize, rice, sorghum, soya, vines, tomatoes, potatoes, fruit trees and spruce.
Dusts, greases, pastes, surface and space sprays and aerosol formulations are usually applied in a random fashion as described above and concentrations of 0.001 to 20% w/v of a compound of Formula (I) in the applied formulation may be used.
The compounds of formula (I) have been found to have activity against the common housefly (Musca domestica). In addition, compounds of formula (I) have activity against other arthropod pest including Tetranychus urticae, Plutella xylostella, Culex spp. and Blattella germanica. The compounds of formula (I) are thus useful in the control of arthropods e.g. insects and acarines in any environment where these constitute pests, e.g. in agriculture, in animal husbandry, in public health and in domestic situations.

Compounds of the invention may be combined with one or more other active ingredient (for example pyrethroids, carbamates and organophosphates) and/or with attractants and/or with fungicides and the like. Furthermore, it has been found that the activity of the compounds of the invention may be enhanced by the addition of a synergist or potentiator, for example: one of the oxidase inhibitor class of synergists, such as piperonyl butoxide or NIA 16388; a second compound of the invention; or a pyrethroid pesticidal compound. When an oxidase inhibitor synergist is present in a formula of the invention, the ratio of synergist to compound of Formula (I) will be in the range 25:1-1:25 e.g. about 10:1.
